Comment (by iseulde):

 > I think it still makes sense to do the display filters though, because
 I'd like to be sure that existing content is made safe too. Does that seem
 ok?

 I initially thought that sounded good, but it seems we are also only
 stripping scripts etc. on save too (not display) and adding another regex
 on display will impact performance again (there are quite a few already).
 I don't know what's best though. I'm curious what others think.
